Sorry man... Fell asleep.
To answer your questions earlier posted to me:
I checked my comp settings and the thresh was closer to -12 than -15 so you're right on track there.
The quad-tracking is the secret sauce indeed but your playing MUST BE ON POINT or it becomes a mess real quick. Also on the 80% panned guitars I dialed in a little more mids on the amp sim.
For my kick I just use eq. I can never get compression on kicks to work out for me. Oh, and that's EZDrummer-Metalheads EZX by the way.
I usually high pass around 50hz. Big scoop around 96hz. Big scoop outta the mids. And boost the highs.
There's a comp on the snare and a comp on the folder. And the bussed comp mixed in.
